Presentation Slides.prepared for: Portland State University & Office for Oregon Health Policy & Research ; by Carol Foley, Ph.D.Title from PDF cover (viewed on April 16, 2020)."During a period from late September to mid-October of 2010, a series of research forums were conducted to get feedback from those impacted by a value-based benefits design; the benefit design is intended for employers and individual purchasers in an Oregon health exchange. Insurers, agents/brokers, hospitals, providers, employers, consumers, and consumer advocates participated in the forums"--Page 2.This archived document is maintained by the State Library of Oregon as part of the Oregon Documents Depository Program.

Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers
No full textIn the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
(A,B) In-Cell quantitative analysis of S2 cells or S2 cells incubated with TAK1 or Kenny dsRNA and treated with LPS for the indicated periods
No full textCells were incubated with anti-p-JNK antibodies. The primary antibody was detected with an Alexa-fluor 750-labeled secondary antibody (A). Cellls were counterstained with Alexa-fluor 680-labeled phalloidin in (B). Panels A and B are false-colored and merged in (C) with p-Bsk in green and f-actin in red. (D) p-Bsk protein levels from (A) were quantified and normalized to f-actin levels in (B) for each time point. The p-JNK:total JNK ratio at 0min LPS exposure was assigned a value of one for each row and all other ratios are shown relative to this value. Error bars represent the standard error of two independent experiments. Treatment of S2 cells with LPS led to a transitory phosphorylation of Bsk, which was eliminated by dsRNA-mediated depletion of dTAK1 and enhanced and prolonged by dsRNA-mediated depletion of Kenny. <p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Quantitative Evaluation of Signaling Events in Drosophila S2 Cells"</p><p></p><p>Biological Procedures Online 2008;10():20-28.</p><p>Published online Jan 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2275046.</p><p>Article © by the author(s).

Co-creative publics and publication design practice
No full textThis study is situated in the practice of publication design. I characterise publication design as the act of bringing thoughts, opinions, information and stories into the public realm. A publication artefact in this study refers to the material and non-material form that the communication takes, such as print, web, audio, or discourse and event.Through this study I make the case that the professional, mainstream practice of publication design will change in relation to the way a public for it changes. In this, design practice is likely to be transformed in a way that is similar to the transformation in other related practices such as media and commerce.On completion of this study, I believe it can be argued that publication design is moving from a broadcast medium to a social and relational one, where the audience participates in the production of meaning (or sense-making) by attaining a closer relationship to the production of design. I use the term co-creative public to describe this audience. The characteristics of this public are that it is self-organised, freely associated and forms in response to attention (Warner 2002).As the relationship between designer and audience evolves reciprocally, it is possible to reinterpret the role of the professional designer and to identify the new opportunities presented
(A,B) Western blot analysis of total and phospho-Bsk protein (p-Bsk) in S2 cells treated with LPS for the indicated periods
No full textLysates were probed with anti-p-JNK (A) and anti-JNK (B) antibodies on a single blot. The primary antibodies were detected with Alexa-fluor 680 and Alexa-fluor 750-labeled secondary antibodies, respectively. Panels A and B are false-colored and merged in C, with total Bsk in red and p-Bsk in green. Molecular mass markers are shown in lane 9. (D) p-Bsk protein levels in (A) were quantified and normalized relative to total JNK protein levels in (B) for each time point. The p-JNK:total JNK ratio at 0min LPS exposure was assigned a value of one and all other ratios are shown relative to this value. Treatment of S2 cells with LPS led to a transitory phosphorylation of Bsk with maximal Bsk phosphorylation at 5 mins. <p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Quantitative Evaluation of Signaling Events in Drosophila S2 Cells"</p><p></p><p>Biological Procedures Online 2008;10():20-28.</p><p>Published online Jan 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2275046.</p><p>Article © by the author(s).

Prevalence of feline herpesvirus-1, feline calicivirus, Chlamydia felis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica in a population of shelter cats on Prince Edward Island.
No full textThe prevalence of the causative agents of feline upper respiratory tract disease (URTD) has been previously documented in many regions worldwide, but has yet to be reported in eastern Canada. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of feline herpesvirus-1 (FHV-1), feline calicivirus (FCV), Chlamydia felis (C. felis), and Bordetella bronchiseptica (B. bronchiseptica) in a population of shelter cats with clinical signs related to URTD on Prince Edward Island, Canada; to compare the prevalence of FHV-1 and FCV as detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and virus isolation (VI) in this population; and lastly, to determine whether factors, such as co-infections, time of year, concurrent feline leukemia virus (FeLV)- or feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV)-positive status, or clinical signs, were associated with prevalence of particular pathogens. Conjunctival, nasal mucosal, and oropharyngeal swabs were collected from 82 cats with clinical signs consistent with URTD. Samples were pooled in transport medium and PCR was used to detect FHV-1, FCV, and C. felis and VI was also used to detect FHV-1 and FCV. A separate swab was submitted for aerobic bacterial culture to detect B. bronchiseptica. Feline herpesvirus-1 (FHV-1) was the most prevalent in this population, followed by C. felis, B. bronchiseptica, and FCV. Of the 4 cats that were positive for B. bronchiseptica, 3 were concurrently positive for FHV-1. All positive B. bronchiseptica cultures were resistant to cefovecin. The prevalence for FHV-1 was lowest in autumn (seasons P < 0.001) and was positively associated with the presence of nasal discharge (P = 0.018) and coughing (P = 0.043).journal article2020 Julimporte
